Killin Music Fest was named ‘Best Scottish Annual Music Festival‘ in the Media Innovator Awards 2020, and ‘Annual Music Festival of the Year‘ in the CorporateLiveWire Global Awards 2020.
The festival was also a finalist for Event of the Year in the Scots Trad Music Awards 2017, and a finalist for Best New Festival in the 2016 UK Festival Awards.
We are currently building our full schedule – ancillary fringe events will surround this main foundation of events.
We have arranged with a local land owner to organise trial run of a campsite to support the festival this year. There will be a limited number of tents and campervan spaces made available.
Campsite passes can be purchased via our ticketing platform, and are only valid for main stage wristband holders. There will be onsite toilets and waste disposal. A code of conduct will cover the usage of the campsite.
If this trial run proves successful we will look to expand and improve the campsite services available in the future.
The campsite opens at noon on Friday 16 June 2023 until noon on Monday 19 June 2023. On arrival at Killin before entering the campsite, visit the festival shop to get your wristbands and directions to the campsite. There is onsite parking inside the campsite, which is around 350m from the festival site.
Graduate of Bird Collegeuk in London, and finalist in Sky’ 1s “Got to Dance”, Emily will host a 1 hour dance workshop session for kids aged 6-12 during our festival Saturday starting at 11.30am.
This is your chance to connect with our local World, British and European champion for both freestyle and slow dance, who is keen to give back and inspire the next generation.

This competition accepts any performance of music, poetry or stories, which celebrate the local area of Killin and Perthshire, and is inspired by Killin’s heritage in traditional Scottish music, in particular, Stewart’s ‘The Killin Collection’.
Col Charles Stewart (1823-1894) was a prominent figure in Killin and Perthshire, and helped to preserve and promote local history, folklore and music. Among his many achievements Stewart was Chief of the Perth Gaelic Society, Director of the Killin Railway, head of Killin Gaelic Choir and was a respected historian and translator of old manuscripts. Born in Glen Lyon, Stewart spent the greater part of his life in Killin at Tigh’n Duin. His legacy ‘The Killin Collection’ comprises songs and tunes of the local area from the 18th century.
The competition takes on the morning of Sunday 18 June 2023, at our free to access community stage.
